  1. BWD40 Fire Tube Boiler for Meantime Brewing
    3 March 2023

     

    Meantime brewing replaces boiler and expands capacity with babcock wanson

     

    A Babcock Wanson BWD40 Fire Tube Boiler has been installed into Meantime Brewing’s Greenwich, London site, which is used in multiple aspects of brewery operation, from wort production through to packaging line operations.  The 4 tonne BWD40 is a replacement for the existing 2.5 tonne boiler, which had come to the end of its working life.

     

    Established in 1999, and based in Greenwich, London, Meantime Brewing Company is part of Asahi UK and has earnt a reputation as a modern pioneer of craft beer in the UK. It has an exciting line-up of core beers such as London Lager and Anytime IPA and innovative collaborations and seasonal beer releases throughout the year.

     

    In a recent refurbishment of its Greenwich site, to both increase capacity and reduce its carbon footprint, Meantime Brewery appointed industrial process heating specialist Babcock Wanson to undertake the boiler replacement works.  This included supplying the BWD40 Fire Tube Boiler and carrying out all the mechanical and electrical works as part of a turnkey solution.  Babcock Wanson developed the plans in close consultation with chief engineers from across parent company, Asahi UK, and ensured the site meets BG01 Guidance on the Safe Operation of Boilers.  BG01 advises on boiler control technology and how to achieve the safety standards laid out in the HSE’s ‘Safe management of industrial steam and hot water boilers’ document (INDG436).

     

    The Babcock Wanson BWD40 Fire Tube Boiler was chosen as the process heat source for this site due to its high efficiency, long life and low cost maintenance.  Efficiency comes as a result of the optimised matching of the boiler shell and the burner, along with advanced burner head geometry which provides stable combustion with near constant efficiency throughout the complete burner modulating range.

     

    Longevity and reduced maintenance requirements are a direct result of the three pass design and use of a coaxially located furnace tube providing optimum distribution of mechanical stress in operation. This is an important feature for boilers that operate under variable steam load, such as at Meantime Brewing, and ensures long equipment life.

     

    Further benefits of the BWD40 are lower total exhaust emissions.  Using Babcock Wanson’s latest Optimo burner, the BWD40 has emission rates of less than 100mg/Nm3 NOx throughout the firing range when burning natural gas, making it one of the best performing burners on the market.

     

    The new boiler in place, with its low NOx emission rates, readily meets the Medium Combustion Plant Directive (MCPD), which covers emissions of sulphur dioxide, nitrogen oxides and dust pollutants to the air.  Babcock Wanson assisted Meantime Brewing with the required application for a new MCPD environmental permit, working with a third party who conducted a detailed boiler house risk assessment covering all relevant aspects – including steam, electrics, operations – and produced a written report.

    After the announcement last October of the acquisition of Donau Carbon Technologies, Babcock Wanson welcomes Norwegian company Parat, world leader in high voltage boilers and PBS Power Equipment, a key player in Central Europe for industrial boilers’ solutions, which have strengthened the Group’s position in the European industrial sector.

     

    Parat is a long-standing player in industrial and marine boilers and more specifically in the electric segment (electrode technology). Based in Flekkefjord (Norway) since 1842, Parat develops, manufactures and distributes electric boilers primarily in Europe but also across various regions in the world, thus assisting industrial players with their decarbonisation strategies. This family-owned company has established its leadership in high-voltage boilers and has experienced strong growth over the past few years. Parat‘s growth is notably linked to the solutions it can offer for electrical grid regulations and the decarbonisation of industrial processes like food processing, pharmaceuticals, chemicals and paper manufacturing. Electrode boilers enable electrical capacities to be converted into thermal energy (hot water or high-pressure steam) with unmatched reliability and responsiveness. Parat employs about 100 people, all based in Flekkefjord and with extensive experience in the sector.

     

    Yngve Halvorsen, CEO of Parat and former majority shareholder, says: “We were looking for a sustainable solution to support our strong growth and confirm our position as world leader in this market. The project proposed by Babcock Wanson and its majority shareholder immediately seemed coherent to us as not only do they provide significant capacities to expand our operations further, but we also share the same values.”

     

    PBS Power Equipment (“PBS”) is a Czech company based in Trebic recognized for its high-quality industrial burners and boilers. PBS is a former subsidiary of PBS INDUSTRY, itself majorly owned by Czech-based private equity firm Jet Investment. It provides customised energy solutions to help manufacturers optimise their energy consumption and limit their environmental impact. The company has operations across the Eastern Europe and has strong ties with blue chip customers, addressing their entire scope of requirements in this market.

     

    Karel Pleha, director at PBS, comments: “Joining Babcock Wanson Group allows us to join a highly relevant organization, active in the same markets as ours, providing synergies for both businesses. We will be able to strengthen our product and service offering to our customers and share knowledge and skills across the newly-formed organisation to increase our market share.”

     

    These two acquisitions complete Babcock Wanson’s 2022 external growth programme, which already welcomed Donau Carbon Technology, a leading supplier of environmental solutions for VOC destruction and solvent recovery in October 2022.

     

    Cyril Fournier-Montgieux, CEO of the Babcock Wanson Group comments: “We are delighted to integrate these three companies within our group, all of which have different profiles and geographic reach but are in line with our overall ambition.  They allow us to strengthen further our market-leading position in Europe while also aiding our target to become the leader in solutions for the decarbonisation of the industrial sector. Parat offers us a local presence in Northern Europe but above all the leadership in the industrial electrification initiative. In parallel, PBS brings us closer to our customers in Central Europe but also strengthens our offer in high efficiency combustion solutions.”

     

    This ambitious external growth programme, combined with strong organic growth in its historical markets, has enabled the Babcock Wanson Group to make a great leap forward. All this is made possible by the partnership between Babcock Wanson and its main shareholder Kartesia, which supports the group’s growth.

     

    Julien Rigon, Director at Kartesia: “We have been at Babcock Wanson’s side since 2016 and strengthened our collaboration in July 2021 by becoming the group’s majority shareholder as we firmly believe in the management team’s project and its capacity to deploy it. 2022 has allowed us to accelerate this ambition and add extra capabilities to the group, which represents a major milestone in its history. We are extremely proud of the work that has been done so far with Babcock Wanson to create a leader in Europe’s energy transition and look forward to the next period of growth for the business with Kartesia’s operational and financial support.”

  4. Boiler house upgrades at Fresenius Kabi France
    9 December 2020

    This summer, Babcock Wanson teams completed the industrial fire tube boilers upgrades at one of Fresenius Kabi’s production site in France.

    Fresenius Kabi, a leading global company in healthcare technologies and medicines, entrusted Babcock Wanson with upgrading their boiler house. This project was commissioned due to the increase in production of the Intravenous Fluid bags produced on site.

    As part of this project, two boilers dating from the 1980s were replaced in two phases. The first phase took place in 2018. Our teams installed a BWR 150A Fire Tube boiler fitted with a Babcock Wanson Modulo+ burner and economiser producing 15 t/h steam . This summer, the second phase was completed; the second boiler being  a BWR 120A Fire Tube boiler, again with a Modulo+ burner and economiser, producing 12 t/h steam. “In detail, the fire tube boiler has been mounted with an economiser with second condensing section. It offers a three-element regulation system with steam, water and gas flow meters, which facilitates automatic calculation of the boiler’s efficiency. The direct intake of the condensates allows maximum energy savings.” adds Mickaël Crochemore, who is in charge of installation and commissioning.

    “These two boilers had already undergone numerous repairs and we decided to replace them to keep pace with our increasing steam requirements.” says Steve Metrot, Fresenius Kabi’s Fluid and Energy Manager.

    The particular configuration of the site (at the edge of a river) and the short project deadline (two weeks including validation by the technical design department) were the main challenges for our teams. “It was also necessary to manage the coactivity: six companies working together in a very limited space. We also installed two complete walkways to facilitate access to the different elements of the boiler.” continues Mr. Crochemore.

    The overall operation was facilitated by the long term relationship between Babcock Wanson and Fresenius Kabi. As part of this long collaboration, Fresenius Kabi also benefits from a simplified maintenance and technical assistance contract, with BW 7-Day Unattended Operation controls for each of the two BWR boilers. “Despite significant constraints (COVID-19) Babcock Wanson was able to meet the deadline, which allowed the boiler to start on time. Babcock Wanson has been a good partner for many years. We are very satisfied with the boilers and the installation carried out by the Babcock Wanson teams.” concludes Mr. Metrot.

  5. Babcock Wanson finalises its second acquisition in Europe
    9 December 2020

    A major player in international energy transition, specialising in the manufacturing and servicing of heating equipment and solutions, Babcock Wanson continues its international growth strategy with the acquisition of Maes in Belgium.

    Maes will become the Belgian subsidiary of Babcock Wanson and will continue to be managed and developed by its founders. With 35-years of experience and more than 300 installations completed, Maes is an expert in the maintenance and installation of steam and thermal fluid boilers. The company generated €7 million of sales in 2019 and employs around 20 technicians.

    Since its spin-off from CNIM group in 2016, Babcock Wanson has been supported by FCDE to develop further as a group through organic and external growth, in particular in the services business.
    The first successful acquisition that FCDE supported was Reputabel Warmtetechniek in the Netherlands in 2017. This allowed Babcock Wanson to further extend its geographical footprint and consolidated its leading position in the European market of medium-power industrial boilers, while positioning its product mix more towards services. In 2019, the group generated €106m in sales and despite the current pandemic, the group’s activity remains strong. This is driven by the dynamics of its large customer base which is focused in the food and pharmaceutical industries.

    With this acquisition, Babcock Wanson is strengthening its position in Europe and its strategy of proximity in the deployment of its service activities.The group is also in advanced discussions with several other European companies in the maintenance, repair and rental of industrial boilers.

    Cyril Fournier-Montgieux, CEO of Babcock Wanson declared: “The acquisition of a dynamic company such as Maes is a great opportunity to establish our direct presence in the Belgian market in order to better deploy the distribution of all our products and associated services. For Maes and its team, this is also the opportunity to rely on a market leader and thus consolidate their position in their territory.

    Julien Di Marco, Partner and Member of the Executive Board of FCDE added: Having put on hold the execution of its external growth strategy during lockdown, the Babcock Wanson group, supported by FCDE, is accelerating its ambition to consolidate the servicing of industrial boilers in a still highly fragmented European market and further strengthens its position as a key player in energy transition.”

  6. Babcock Wanson announces launch of new CEA thermal fluid system guide
    19 February 2020

    Leading industrial process heating equipment manufacturer Babcock Wanson is pleased to announce the release of the latest Combustion Engineering Association (CEA) boiler guide – ‘Thermal Fluid Systems – A Practical Guide for Safe Design, Operation and Maintenance’ – in which it has been one of the lead authors in collaboration with other appropriate members of the CEA.

    BG07, as the new guide is referenced, has been produced to help designers, owners, managers and operators of new and existing thermal fluid heating systems to operate safe installations, and to make health and safety and environmental improvements in the industry. The objective is to help users of thermal fluid systems manage their own risks and create safe and efficient installations.

    “Babcock Wanson is proud to have been a key contributor to this document” states Chris Horsley, Process Engineering Director at Babcock Wanson.  “As a manufacturer of the full gamut of industrial process heating systems, we have extensive, invaluable experience in this field, from best practice in designing systems, through to health and safety and operational procedures.  Thermal fluid systems are increasingly popular due to their ease of use, longevity, energy efficiency and more, and, whilst they are far easier to manage than, say, a comparable steam system, understanding how they work and their parameters is important to ensure you get the most out of your investment, including energy efficiency, safety and long life.”

    ‘Thermal Fluid Systems – A Practical Guide for Safe Design, Operation and Maintenance’ covers the full range of issues pertinent to thermal fluid systems, from why and when to use them and system design considerations such as choice of fluid, heat source, expansion and deaeration,  pumps and pipework, to installation and commissioning and operation and maintenance.  Training is also addressed, along with legislative requirements.

    Babcock Wanson has worked closely with the CEA on this and other projects, including additional boiler guides and producing the first Boiler Operation Accreditation Scheme (BOAS) Cat 5 training course for Coil type Steam Generator Operators in the UK.

    The CEA is an educational charity which promotes the science of combustion engineering in the commercial and industrial sectors.  The CEA is concerned with industry good practice and the safe and efficient operation of combustion related plant and equipment, and offers guidance and accredited training schemes that match the wide range of industrial combustion plant available today.

    David Kilpatrick, Director of the CEA, has said “that without the significant input of Babcock Wanson and other members of the CEA this, and other similar guides, would not be possible, and I would hope that industry now takes up the training that is available to support this guide and understands the legislative requirements”.

    Babcock Wanson offers a complete range of products and services for boiler houses and other process heating needs, from steam boilers, thermal fluid heaters, rapid steam generators and hot water boilers to VOC and odour treatment by thermal oxidation, water treatment or process air heating solutions.  The company aims to help optimise customer’s energy production with high quality products and efficient service.

    The new ‘Thermal Fluid Systems – A Practical Guide for Safe Design, Operation and Maintenance’ is available to order from the CEA website – https://cea.org.uk/knowledge-centre/cea-guidance-documents/ – at a cost of £50 plus P&P.

  7. Babcock Wanson produces world’s first 1MW gas fired supercritical water heater
    19 February 2020

    Babcock Wanson has produced a bespoke TPC SW 1MW gas fired Supercritical Water Heater, which operates at 275 bar pressure and reaches a temperature of 490°, for Promethean Particles as part of its nanoparticle production process.

    Promethean Particles has built the world’s largest continuous multi-material nanoparticle manufacturing plant, based in Nottingham, producing in excess of 1000 tons per year.  Its unique reactor design allows for continuous (as opposed to batch) production and flexibility, enabling it to produce a huge variety of materials to customer’s specifications.  The flexibility is largely down to the wide temperature range achievable with its process, which is important as there is a correlation between the temperature and particle size.

    Babcock Wanson was one of a handful of manufacturers approached by Promethean Particles, and the only one to provide a suitable solution.  The heater is based on a Babcock Wanson TPC 1000B, but with very special inners and controls.  For this bespoke heater Babcock Wanson designed and manufactured a specially wound continuous coil assembly to form the main heating surface using ASI 321 9mm thick stainless steel, as opposed to the usual 4mm carbon steel for a standard industrial type water heater.  The core of the tube is very small.  This material and thickness were chosen to meet the pressure and temperature demands of the process to be able to produce supercritical water at up to 250 bar and 450°C.

    Several challenges were faced along the way, including designing the heater with the ability to accept variations in water flow (between 600-3000 kg/h per hour) and heat input within quite wide parameters; developing specialist welding techniques to cope with the material to the design pressure required and specifying and installing specialist instruments and controls to work at these temperatures and pressures.

    All in all it took seven months to design and build.  The combustion system, control scheme and software were designed in-house by Babcock Wanson.  Relevant mountings, safety valves, pressure controllers and differential controllers were sourced and fitted in house to enable PED approval.  A hazard and operability study (HAZOP) were carried out between Babcock Wanson and Promethean engineers to review the controls and integration with the site control Scada system.

    The resulting heater is now an integral part of the process, which includes return fluid heat recovery to limit the final temperature rise of the fluid to 90°C.  This brings it up to 360°C water at 270 bar to take it to the temperature required for the supercritical condition.  With standard water, this would typically require just 314kW, but as the supercritical water is so dense up to 1000kW is needed.

    The supercritical water is then pumped into the reactor at the same time as the precursor where it mixes and forms the product.  The product leaves the reactor through a specially constructed section at 350°C.  It then goes through the heat exchanger to cool it down and recover waste heat and the pressure is reduced before passing the product into a holding tank.  Depending on the product, further processing may then be required.

    The entire process is controlled by sophisticated software and is encased in toughened casing for safety.

    Lewis Neve, Production Engineer at Promethean Particles, comments: “The heater is running as expected.  Babcock Wanson knew what they were doing and it went very smoothly.  They have also been very easy to work with, very professional in the way they communicated with us and the fact that they were in constant communication made it easier for us.”

    Babcock Wanson offers a complete range of products and services for boiler houses and other process heating needs, from steam boilers, thermal fluid heaters, rapid steam generators and hot water boilers to VOC and odour treatment by thermal oxidation, water treatment or process air heating solutions.  The company aims to help optimise customer’s energy production with high quality products and efficient service.

  8. Babcock Wanson Steam Boiler for Caramel Production
    19 February 2020

    The NIGAY family company, based in FEURS (42-France), specialises in the manufacture of caramels for use in various forms by craftsmen and food processing industries (annual production of 68,000 tons).
    Driven by its dynamic growth and committed to an ISO 50001 approach, it has decided to convert its steam production equipment from heavy fuel oil to natural gas firing thereby improving both energy utilisation and performance.

    It has placed its trust in Babcock Wanson to install a new boiler room, which includes a BWD 80 steam boiler equipped with a Babcock Wanson Modulo+ micro-modulating burner and an economizer. This equipment allows the boiler to operate at very low power with a modulation range from 1 to 12, while maintaining flexibility of use, highest practicable efficiency and a very high response rate.

    The economizer recovers part of the heat from the flue gases to preheat the boiler feed water. The boiler room is controlled by a dedicated PLC, making it easy to monitor its performance and operation.

    The efficiency of the installation with this level of equipment is circa 95.6% based on the net calorific value of the fuel.. NOx emissions are of the order of 80 mg/Nm, a value well below that imposed by the site operating permit (150 mg/Nm).
    The conversion of the boiler room to natural gas has enabled the company to reduce its CO emissions by nearly 30%.
